    You will need to edit the style of the annotation to not be annotative. ie: for text, edit the text style being used and change it to be non-annotative.

    Another option is to set your Annotative Scale to what you want Annotative Objects to appear at. You then have to manually scale the Viewport. Here's the work flow...
    1. Set CANNOSCALE to 1/4" = 1'-0"
    2. Start ZOOM, SCale
    3. Enter the scale factor for 1/8" = 1'-0" (which is 1/96XP)
    4. This will zoom the Viewport to 1/8" while the Annotative Objects retain their 1/4" properties.
